[Trying my best]

Does anyone have any experience with using this dorman part....mine broke and if my weld breaks, then I'll need one.

Here is a link....

may want to consider going with the early style 4x4 shifter 1989 much better set up in my opinion its a up-grade and you will never have to replace it .the 93-96 style you have are very poor design dont wast the money prone to break ,snaaaaappppp,there goes another hundred

Do the older ones work in the 92-97 trucks? That is actually a very good price. I get more than that for rebuilt used ones. Drill them for grease fittings and youll never have to wory about breaking another one. Providing you grease it.

Good question, I don't know if the old ones work on the newer ones. Good call on the zerks.

IIRC, it's the "PUSH DOWN" movement that jams up on this part typically. Cheapo fix that makes it _work_ like the earlier trucks - grind off the pin that has to dance around the detent plate to get to and from neutral and 4LO. No more need to push down on the lever.

I think the zf I bought has one, came out of a 94 stroke. I can check it out and it can go CHEAP.

I sell these used for $75, I take them apart - clean and grease them....Work better than new. I can shift mine with 2 fingers are 60km/hr. I've never broken one trying to shift it, I have broken one trying to get the linkage off the pin to free the shifter up........I had it TIG welded at work. These used to be almost $500 from the dealer.

I have one from my 88, I'd have to dig around to find it. And that could be a few days...
